It’s a shame Putin doesn’t just take the millions he has ferreted away and retire somewhere sunny.
EC
Russia will have a HIGH-LEVEL team there to negotiate. Let’s see if Ukraine does the same.
Interesting. It appears both leaders are compelled to keep the fighting going, in order to stay in power. Not much room for negotiation there.
He’s embarrassing Trump... That’s not going to help him.
” Vladimir Putin will not show up for peace talks “
Vlad the Invader ‘no shows’ because he hasn’t been forced to the table. I have been totally against the ‘coalition of the willing’ of European soldiers in Ukraine. Now, they should start to move in assets to protect non-combat areas while Ukrainians can be freed for a summer offensive. NATO should ship large amounts of aircraft so that Ukraine can enjoy air superiority -2000-3000K fighters over airspace. Simultaneously, artillery, Tanks, APC in huge volumes so Ukraine can achieve a break out for fast moving armor.
I have always favored and end to this stupid conflict, and peace. Vlad started it, now he wants to keep going. We now have uncovered his intentions, beyond what the propagandist have said, and he has said. Show him where it’s going to go now. He wants to bet everything on ‘imports’ from China, NC, and Iran to keep Russia in the game, let him bet that pair of 5’s. The production weight, equipment, and airpower of Europe and the United States might beat a pair of 5’s.
Vlad the Invader better start shinning his nuclear missiles and the world better shudder. Vlad isn’t going to have any Ukraine territory and going to lose Russian soil, IMHO. I don’t even like little ‘z’, but he played this one right by listening to Trump.
Stunningly stupid decision by the Russians.

My question...Was "Z" going to wear green or his dress (cough cough) black.
Putin is stalling (not) because “Z” already tipped everyone off about his incoming weapons and supplies during any Cease fire.
Putin and Trump should meet at Torgau.
It’s clear someone doesn’t want this war to end.
Translation: Your Zelensky, with encouragement from the EU, is looking for any excuse not to engage in serious peace talks.
This blather is proof, BTW, that the British government does not want peace in Ukraine and is working to undermine the peace talks.
Erdogan’s Turkey if full of rabid Islamist Jihadi’s.
I suspect Putin might be in serious danger there.
Trump expresses his friendship with Erdogan. I am not going to speculate what President Trump has on Erdogan.
They both fight a deep state. But in Erdogan’s case, the Kemalists are a lot more sane than Erdogan. Erdogan thinks he is about to be the next Sultan and restore the Ottoman Empire.
Headline and reporting do NOT match.
Reporting uses unlikely to show up.
Vladimir Putin will not show up for peace talks because his 25-year stranglehold on Russia ends if he yields, experts say
So say unnamed "experts".
There's a reliable source for you.
